In his New York Times review of the 1976 premiere of George Balanchine’s Chaconne, Clive Barnes remarked, “The choreography for this divertissement is essentially organic. The ballet unfolds, unfurls, develops—it does not merely happen. The inevitability of movement, the sheer momentum of gesture, this is why Chaconne is such a rich and gorgeous work."

In a New York Times review of Christopher Wheeldon's After the Rain Pas de Deux following its premiere in January 2005, John Rockwell writes, "One goes on about the music because it's so beautiful, because Mr. Wheeldon works so sensitively with it and because he has created a ballet that is as full of choreographic invention as the scores are full of musical invention."

"Mr.Balanchine knows [Maria Tallchief's] capabilities so well that he has really created a role for her that is hard to match, and she dances it like a million dollars. On second thought, make it two million... Miss Tallchief has been a fine dancer for some time, but here she has really outdone herself. It is no wonder the audience shouted itself hoarse," reported John Martin for The New York Times following the 1949 world premiere of George Balanchine's Firebird.
